Mark 15:22-34

22They brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha (which means Place of the Skull).

23They tried to give him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take it.

24Then they crucified him and divided his clothes, casting lots for them to decide what each would get.

25Now it was nine in the morning when they crucified him.

26The inscription of the charge written against him was: The King of the Jews.

27They crucified two criminals with him, one on his right and one on his left.

29Those who passed by were yelling insults at him, shaking their heads, and saying, “Ha! The one who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,

30save yourself by coming down from the cross!”

31In the same way, the chief priests with the scribes were mocking him among themselves and saying, “He saved others, but he cannot save himself!

32Let the Messiah, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and believe.” Even those who were crucified with him taunted him.

33When it was noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon.

34And at three Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lemá sabachtháni?” which is translated, “My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?”
